Hey Vulnerabites, So, there’s like this huge lump in my throat as I begin to share vulnerably about this part of my life. Like I mentioned a few blogs ago, I absolutely do not like talking about my relationship (or anything related to it), but seems to be the place that resonates with most of you….

Hey Vulnerabites, One minute…Let me seal the velcro on my boxing gloves, so this fight can be fair. She sent me this long WhatsApp message… I mean, the kind that had the ‘read more’ tab after her 6th paragraph. Taking a very deep breath and squirming at the length of it, I sat down to…

Hey Vulnerabites, Hope the New Year is being good to you! Mine has been a little busier than I would’ve hoped, but hey… I’ll take it 🙂 Happy New Year to you! But as promised in the acceptance speech of receiving my first blog award … Here are 10 things about your Naked Writer:

Hey Vulnerabites, A few weeks ago, a young lady stumbled on my blog and commented that she saw some catchy titles in my list of blogs and couldn’t wait to start reading. Naturally, I was thrilled that a complete stranger found my stories intriguing, we call that Market Validation — thanks for teaching me big important words…

Hey Vulnerabites! Oh how I’ve missed you. Thank you for all the love y’all have shown my guest writers! Felt like the moment a single mom brings home her male “friend” and her kids are nice to him.

Hey Vulnerabites, She sent me an email sharing how the transparency in my blog had inspired her own openness. After a few “hard and force you to process your feelings” questions and a couple of rough drafts later, this fell into my inbox. I hope you find her honesty as refreshing as I did….

Hey Vulnerabites, So, I know y’all like when I talk relationships, those posts always drive the most traffic, and not to mention, it came up a number of times in response to my last post asking, “what do you want to read about?” So as per the request of a fellow Vulnerabite, here we go… “A guy…

Hey Vulnerabites, So about this time last year in my blog post, Mentally I’ve Left. I wrote… Me: I’m alright — still at my job. Want to be gone next year. Really doing myself a disservice by being there. Guess what? I resigned from my job last week.

Hey Vulnerabites, So, I went to counseling recently… TEAM VULNERABLE HERE… Yes BLACK WOMEN DO COUNSELING TOO! Rolling my eyes at everyone who just withdrew my “Strong Black Women” card! But why did I even just do that? I just countered my efforts to live emotionally healthy with a side note that ‘y’all probably think…
